I'm trying to calibrate a 1mm (ball dia) x 3mm (length) star probe on a 25mm sphere. The probes want to rotate around that sphere at the equator, but it's too small to get good hits. What are the settings that I can input to move where the probes take their hits?
You can change your start and end angles in the calibration dialog box so that it probes less of the sphere. Or, I used a 5X50 stylus as a cal sphere....
That is interesting. I have never thought of using a stylus as a cal sphere. We calibrate our cal sphere so idk if I would take that route unless I had a supermic to get the exact diameter. I like that idea though.
Scott Reiff I would start by changing your start and end angles. Unless you get a smaller cal sphere unfortunately that is probably your only option.
Thanks for the tip. I'll try the 5x50 if I can figure out how to set it up a calibration sphere. Being new to PCDMIS and having never taking formal training, I haven't done this yet.
